Description
-----------

This is a 300-BAUD BASIC program for use with a Bally Astrocade and Bally BASIC.

This is an educational game to help children learn to tell time.  The computer will randomly set the clock and ask "THE TIME IS." The hours and the minutes can be entered by using JX(1) and JY(1).  Pull TR(1) when you completed the answer.  If the answer is right a bird will fly from the clock to the bell and ring it.  If you are wrong, the bird will appear and chirp "Coo Coo!"  The computer will then ask you to set the time to a random time.  You can move the hands by using JX(1) and JY(1).
